  • "Pleasant stay in well appointed accommodation."

    The host Johnathon was friendly and accommodating, the welcome hamper provided was a nice touch. Granary 2 was clean warm and cosy however the access and surrounding grounds can get a bit difficult to navigate in bad wet conditions (but no one can control the weather) overall a lovely place to stay for business or pleasure and I’m sure I will return.

    It was clean, bright and airy, and had everything we needed. A comfortable base to explore the surrounding area. Lots of footpaths accessible from the accommodation too. The owner was friendly, thoughtful and helpful. Nice to have access to the lawn for the dog and baby to crawl around on. Would recommend.

  • "We were very pleased with the cottage."

    We were visiting the area to join in a family golden wedding celebration, and the cottage provided us with a very pleasant, clean and comfortable base for that - in fact, all we could possibly want. The 'goodies' provided (bread, milk, biscuits, chocolate, fruit, flowers) were generous and very welcome. The bed was comfortable. As it happens the ground floor flat was unoccupied during our stay. I imagine it might be possible to have noisy holiday-making neighbours, but we had a lovely quiet stay. Our one query was whether it might be possible to fit a security light to provide light for the outside stairs? There is a light, but the switch is indoors. Overall, a very pleasant stay - thank you to the owners of this cottage!

  • "Very quiet location and the welcome basket and flowers on arrival was lovely."

    In terms of improvements going forward I’d suggest they remove the bath and fit a standalone shower unit, that will remove issue with the leaks from shower over bath and also look to fit shaver socket in Bathroom for toothbrushes etc.

    There is a great area to give your pooch a run. The owners are very friendly. If there is a downside, it’s that the local pub, 10 mins walk away is very dated and not great quality food (though it is cheap), however the fish and chip shop is good. In the summer or warmer months the property would be ideal for outside cooking and eating.

    the pound is more like a swamp and it's full of spiders and bugs. the fence has gaps in so small dogs can get out if they want to. the bath is very slim so you can't relax and the shower had kept coming off and hit me in the face one time. the bed was a bit small and not as comfy as I'd like. only one sofa so mot much room to sit. no washing machine dishwasher etc. TV small and sound has terrible. the place is built on top of anther cottage so you have to be social all the time. owners house on top of yours so be prepared for busy farm work on ur door step. owners are friendly and the surrounding areas are nice. if you want a basic stay with other people below you and overgrown grounds then it will be fine. if you like peace space and luxury then it's not for you.

    Thank you for your feedback. The owner was very disappointed to see your review as she went out of her way to provide a card as per your request and bake special brownies for your special occasion. The garden in places has been allowed to grow longer as feedback from guest advised that dogs who visit enjoy exploring in the long grass. The pond does have local wildlife in it as you would expect at this time of year. With reference to the fence it does show that the property is surrounded by trees and greenery and the listing does not advise that it has a dog proof garden, this as you can appreciate is very difficult for the owner to guarantee. The shower has been recently fitted and the owner was surprised to find it broken after your stay, if they had know it was causing problems during your stay they would have been only too happy to assist with it. The property has excellent feedback and we stand by the listing information on our website. I'm sorry that Granary 2 wasn't suited to your needs or requirements. Property Owner

    The property: Wonderful top level apartment, with bathroom (bath, shower & heated towel rail), bedroom (Twin bed) and large Kitchen/lounge. We were delighted to receive a gift basket upon our arrival (Bread, bree, biscuits, chocolate, etc..) and even more delighted with the owners Kate and Jonathan who were so friendly and engaging, they made us feel special. They also dropped us off a home made Bara Brith (not usually a fan but this was amazing) and even made the literal best chocolate brownies ever for me wife's birthday. They were also great to just have a chat with. Kitchen has an eclectic HOB/oven, fridge/freezer, microwave, kettle, toaster and also a coffee machine (they even supplied a number of pods). Plenty of cutlery for use. The building has some of its original features, which was nice, it did a get a little hot in there however there was ample ventilation one we worked out how to open the roof windows. Although the grounds the building is on contain another holiday home below it and the owners home next door there is plenty of space, specifically a sizeable grassed area at the back of the cottage overlooking a pond with a BBQ pit and benches, table, we ate outside on 3 times during our week in this area. You will definitely need a car to get about however the driving is quite pleasant (during the daytime). Things to do: There isn't much in the local area, two pubs, a shop, a takeaway and a surprisingly large church. If you fancy good food and more to do visit Hay-on-Wye which is about 20 minutes away by car - lovely town with great sites, restaurants, market and walks (particularly the river walk - just make sure you take the time to visit the warren for a quick dip). You can visit Hereford if you fancy the hustle & bustle of a small city - pubs, cinema, restaurants a lot of shops. There are a lot of national trust sites nearby. Overall an amazing stay in an amazing place with amazing hosts with lots of things to do.
